Production-ready Sony Xperia T leaked in live photos

Sony has an upcoming handset, the Xperia T, which was just revealed in a number of hands-on photos from Russian site Nixanbal. Along with the generous amount of photos, some of which can be send below, some early tech specs are also revealed. They include a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 1GB of RAM, and 16GB of integrated storage.

The phone also gets a 4.3-inch touchscreen and there is a 13-megapixel camera out back paired with an LED flash. Wireless payments can be performed thanks to an integrated NFC chip.

This device leaked earlier this year under the LT30i Mint model name. Back then, it was expected to use a quad-core chip and an OLED display.

The Xperia T is due to be officially unveiled at an event right before the IFA show in Berlin on August 29. It should debut alongside the Xperia J, Xperia SL, and LT29i Hayabusa.
